Product Details
The JET® L-100 series hand chain hoist features robust all-steel construction, designed for safety, durability, and innovation suitable for demanding industrial environments. Notable safety attributes include a slip clutch style overload protection that prevents lifting loads beyond the rated capacity. The patented fused brake system is an exclusive innovation by JET® that minimizes maintenance costs and operational downtime, supported by an industry-leading lifetime replacement warranty. The hoist is offered in capacities ranging from 1/4 ton to 20 tons, with standard lift options of 10, 15, 20, and 30 feet (custom lifts available). The design incorporates double sealed ball bearings supporting the load sheave, which enhances efficiency and ensures smooth operation. Additionally, a grade 100, corrosive resistant plated load chain provides a more compact link that is 20% stronger than grade 80 chains. The heat-treated load plates and industrial rated alloy steel hooks, which rotate 360 degrees and exhibit slow stretching to indicate overload, are suited for harsh environments. The hoist also features cast-steel safety latches secured with Allen screws and lock nuts, providing greater durability compared to stamped steel latches. Its lightweight design and compact body make it ideal for confined spaces and low headroom applications, while the Weston style double ratchet pawl brake design enhances load stability by distributing the load across opposite sides of the ratchet gear.
